same time have the capital city con-
dected with the spike driving station
by telegraph, with an electric wire
fastened to the spike and connected
with the Sacramento fire trm sys-
TEN, SO that each blow of the sledge
may be hard here. Still another
plan for the celebration is for the Sac

the spot where the last spike is to be
driven.
